How to connect standalone desktop application in adobe AIR with spring

Mar 24th, 2012, 03:05 PM

Hello friends,

I have been using spring mvc since long time and also I have little knowledge of Adobe Flex action scripting 3. Now I want to develop an application whose client end will be Adobe AIR standalone desktop application and back end will be spring application running on apache tomcat 6.x. I have developed a login screen and written classes and methods for validating user using spring-security.

When I run the application in tomcat I am getting following error:

Code:

I have googled a lot, also tried to search previous forums, but i was not able to find any appropriate solution for this.

This has been answered before and judging from the stack trace you are mixing spring versions/spring jars. Check your class path for conflicting jars also check in different class loaders for same or multiple spring jars.
